The Heinous Hen House should not let Julie do any more posts until she educates herself.
In the Healthcare Debate, OReillys Main Concern Seems To Be the Privacy of His Own Medical Records

I have some questions for the ditzy Julie.
#1. Would you want the govt having access to your health records?
#2. Do you really believe there will be no rationing of health care because Obama says so?
#3. Did you know that under your current insurance that if you get turned down for a procedure you can choose to get it done on your own? Under a government plan there will be no choices in that regard.
#4 You accuse O'Reilly of fearmongering while giving Obama a pass when he states that we must get health care passed NOW or you will all die tomorrow.
I know, I know he didn't say thos exect words but you get my drift.
Now, be a good little poodle and educate yourself.

Cecelia, I've heard you say on occasion "I love my Megyn".
Well, I've always liked her a great deal too but now I absolutely agree. I TOO LOVE MY MEGYN.
She just did a segment on the two astronauts scheduled for a space walk today while showing a prominent picture of the two Hotties, and I do mean Hotties. She waxed poetic about how hot they are. My kind of girl.
So, Johnny, how about some eye candy for we ladies for a while?
Forgive me Chubby Hubby but those two could put their shoes under my bed anytime!

There's nothing like a man with all the right stuff.

Now now ladies, this is the 21st century. These days, when it comes to we guys:
50 is the new 30
"Kegs" are the new "Six Packs"
Balding is the new head full of thick hair"
Puffy is the new chiseled
Small is the new big and big is the new small.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Ashley, what ever are you talking about?
For me a guy in his fifties who is only bald and puffy but still has his own teeth would be a prime catch.
Actually, he would be worth all the ribbing I would get for "robbing the cradle".
BTW, sit up and weep. One was 39 and the other 48 or 49.

You're right, Johnny, Lou Dobbs has become the new Pat Buchanan.
It was interesting last night to hear Chuck Todd and Chris Matthews talking about some documents about some doings or another involving Dick Cheney.
The current WH won't release the documents because of the stifling affect it might have on future administrations.
Matthews actually gave a shout out to ole Rahm and company, about how they might leak the documents, and then he and Todd launched into a bit about how it was the media's job to desire and to seek all this information. (cue patriotic music...)
Then Matthews touched on the birther issue and asked (wondered aloud, really) why Obama didn't just release his original birth certificate.
Now I believe this birther stuff is nonsense, but it was comical to see Chuck Todd COMPLETELY do an about-face and shoot down that idea, saying that it wouldn't do any good with the conspiracy theory peeps, etc etc.
THIS after having just launched into pronouncements on the correct and proper curiosity of journalists and the service they provide via their continuous demand for documents, records, information...
